I thoroughly enjoyed my al pastor super Burrito so much that I have gone back again for it. Although it is on the pricey side, the Burrito is packed with a very flavorful al pastor.

I was going to return today to try some tacos when a worker there was looking very angry at me while I parked. The first parking spot is half level with the sidewalk and it was hard to tell if I was pulled in and out of the way of the entrance. The worker inside seemed to be very upset and using coarse language and upset hand gestures to reflect that. A simple hand motion for me to back up would have been nice but as I got out to look and speak to him he stormed off. I am willing to admit when I am wrong but it wasn't easy to tell with the low/street level curb. Because of this one person's actions, I will never eat there again or be able to review anymore of their food. Based on the quality of the one item I have had and the poor attitude of this one staff member, I rate it with...

In all honesty, this has been my best food experience in Santa Cruz. I come from San Jose area, where I know nothing but amazing spicy and flavorful Hispanic cuisine. They have a wide array of different salsas, and different variations of traditional Hispanic dishes. My vegetarian burrito, which not only included fresh vegetables such as onions, fresh pico de gallo, lettuce, and really good avocado guacamole. The burrito itself was nicely wrapped, quite delicately, and not too juicy so that there was excess sauces on my hands or my eating space. I usually do not write good reviews unless I am thoroughly pleased, and in this case, Taqueria Agave has surpassed my expectations. I will...

This place was highly recommended as one of the best taquerias in the area... Unfortunately my tastebuds didn't agree the staff was friendly, but their food was not all that good to me or my son. the chips tasted old like they were fried in old grease and I did not like the taste of the salsas or guacamole, it's like the guacamole was mixed with a bunch of sour cream or something it was weird, but anyways definitely not what I'm used to here in Tennessee. I will say they were busy so apparently a lot of people like the place... I don't want to just slam the place but it didn't fit with my taste and I...

First time I ate here (a week ago) I took out the combo with chile rejeno, chicken enchilada, rice & beans and reheated it at home - it was good, but not great (probably because of the take-out and delay in eating). But the other day I returned and took out 2 carnitas tacos, and they were GREAT! Like $6.25, including chios and salsa (which they toss in for free), plus very friendly service - it can't be beat! You can eat outside at their counter, or take-out. This is definitely becoming my go-to place for carnitas tacos or a carnitas burrito - delicious!

5 stars for hitting perfect sweet spot of price vibe atmosphere food. I knew I'd found a winner the first time I came and it started getting filled with Mexican couples and families and working guys. It feels like it's been here forever but opened fairly recently. 2008 I found it because they also do a small popup for food for Moe's Alley so I figured might as well check out the mothership Bonus points for the pickled potato which I've never seen before!

An overlooked gem here in Santa Cruz. Their sign is faded but has no effect on how hood their food is! Authentic Mexican with many traditional dishes. Their shrimp dishes are really good and fresh. The picture here is fajitas. Prices are very reasonable in this time of 'high prices and less for your money'. They offer generous portions, large burritos, and excellent food. Highly recommend this place to visitors and residents. Enjoy 😉
